Not arguing that students are getting less intellectual. - DHighlander NWMSU - 6/7 18:35:01

Intelligence gets lessened with poor education - JG A - 6/7 18:36:55

Do you have any proof of this? Can you name a single CC - DHighlander NWMSU - 6/7 18:39:40

Again, just because you are too stupid understand the - DHighlander NWMSU - 6/7 18:54:13

I didn't say I could not understand them - JG A - 6/7 18:57:36

You keep claiming that but offer zero proof. This is not a - DHighlander NWMSU - 6/7 19:10:55

You can't even understand the simplest principles of - JG A - 6/7 19:15:39

I am very aware of Vedic math. The hilarious thing is that - DHighlander NWMSU - 6/7 19:29:18

The trick is get the right answer in the easiest possible - JG A - 6/7 19:33:59

Absolutely incorrect. The trick is understanding how you - DHighlander NWMSU - 6/7 19:43:43

You validate everything I have said - JG A - 6/7 19:54:13

Your premise is NOT valid. It is NOT more complex. It IS - DHighlander NWMSU - 6/7 19:58:43

I would love to believe you - JG A - 6/7 20:26:12

Common Core is the Iraq of education - JG A - 6/7 17:22:06

I will take that as a no, you have not read them. I can say - DHighlander NWMSU - 6/7 18:37:26

I'm not doubting that nonsense makes sense to you - JG A - 6/7 18:40:00

Again, can you identify a single CC standard that you have - DHighlander NWMSU - 6/7 18:46:24

Old school vs Common nonsense - JG A - 6/7 18:56:18

Your example is complete nonsense. I do not teach at that - DHighlander NWMSU - 6/7 19:23:42

That makes some sense, however - JG A - 6/7 19:31:41

It is not more complex, it is different. Kids actually pick - DHighlander NWMSU - 6/7 19:37:30

Iffen they did, then their scores would reflect that. - JG A - 6/7 19:40:03

That is because a majority of American school children learn - DHighlander NWMSU - 6/7 19:48:51
